@JayJ I think it’s $/£150 for the machine and all the games cartridges currently released. The machine is about $80 with 3 cartridges (about 50/60 retro games). I also have some concerns about it – but in general I think it’s a cool idea imo.
Also the Switch Lite stupidly doesn’t support HDMI out at all, which the Evercade does at a lot lower price point. I’m sure Nintendo could have included the option with a dedicated cable if they tried.
I’m sure It’ll do very well, but to me it’s the Switch Lite that is a bit of a fail – no TV mode! no HD rumble and still no bluetooth – but at a premium price. Omitting those first 2 in particular means I’ll never buy a Switch Lite – they are too important to me – despite the fact that I would have loved a lighter Switch. So to me, and maybe others, a Switch Lite is no good – but I’m getting kinda interested in an Evercade, alongside my full fat Switch.
Like I say, Switch Lite will sell very well, but it’s not without its issues, and I don’t see a problem with other companies playing the market with a different approach. I hope the machine does well.
